So.. I have a problem I thought maybe some of you could help with.
---
since I got in Japan I bought this awsome boots :) (No I dont have a pic) and general I notice that they do have alittle more of those high heel for men than we do in my location area.
I recently felt in love with the high shoes and high heels thing, so I been seached around to find some.

the problem is as I just said, they dont really exist for men here in my location, or even if you find it your VERY lucky. :-\

however there pretty common if you just label the shoes as for women.
with this kinda "androgyne looking shoes, just alittle higher, and alittle bigger heel, then its a girl shoe tada!"

I dont care whatever its girl or guy shoes, a shoe is a shoe and I just wear what I like,
but I got a size 43EU,
which is exactly 1 size too big for female shoes at least for those im interesteed in.
-----------
So im not good at doing online shopping, but im going to my dad to look it up and help me on this past.

do any of you have some recomendations on a site where I can some of those in my size?
I would prefern a european site, so I wouldnt had to deal with the size thing, but anywhere is fine.
-------
to point out all exactly what im seaching:
It pretty much this kind of looks, it dosent matter if there slighly girly or femenine, but I prefern them to at least be androgyne looking.



---
for the heels I like them thick and not slim. its okay if there a bit high but not too much.
nothing higher than this: (I dont like the shoe its just an exemple)

Try http://www.yesstyle.com , they have tons of different asian clothing products.

thanks, I have looked at it and they do have alot of nice clothing.
only thing bothering me is the size.
I am extremly unsure how to size from ex japanese into eropean.

like if I buy shoes here I get then in 42-43. but when I looked at my shoes who was bought in japan (and was japanese)
they where 25.5 which is like 41 or something in EU and that ridiculous cause they where very big, compared. I thought they where 43-44 EU.

Uhm, I don't want to pop your bubble, but I doubt you'll fit in much of Yesstyle's shoes. I wear around EU 39-40 (assuming my feet haven't been shrinking from HRT, since my latest shoes are one year old), and almost all pairs that interested me either didn't go nearly large enough or had their maximum size right at 39, which is hazardous with my tremendously high and wide feet if I can't try them on. My point is, Asians are small, and they have small feet. So if any part of you is any larger than average (or even perfectly average, sometimes), you'll have trouble finding anything... If I understood well, you're mostly looking into women's manly boots, so that probably means you'll hit the same barrier as I.

Though if as you said sizes truly vary from what's expected, look at the detailed informations, compare with a pair of shoes you own or from another website, and see for yourself whether the measurements are accurate. ^.^

You can always try, but I think you'll have trouble. If you're curious about shoe size, they have a table: http://www.yesstyle.ca/en/shoe-size/help/section.html/hsi.1182

And on each item, in the left column, above the detailed measures, you always have the original unit (Taiwan, China, etc.)

If you're still into looking there, in case you haven't noticed, the same company just opened a website specialised in shoes: yeswalker.com. Just women's, but yeah, that's the category you're looking in, right?

PS: Interesting how as a guy whose body didn't get the message, you still got rather guy-sized feet. :p

the masurement just dosent really seam to make sense. as I said I bought some japanese shoes there size 25.5 male who where big, which would be a 40EU, which is very small when I normally use 42-43. Sure I can always pay and get some try them un and then echange them for someone bigger if they dont fit, its just alittle more complicated.

I bet its because of my high, im 176cm. which is a few centimerts below a regular guy. who would be around 179-184.
but yeah ^^ its kinda luxery-unluck, that I cant fit girls shoes.
I know a ftm. his 187cm I think, and his 44-45EU in shoes..

Wow, that's about my height.  I would feel very intimidated next to him!

Average guy? 176 cm? Haha, not here. I don't think the average guy is any taller than 170 cm. I'm still pretty close to average at 165. oo' Land of dwarves, this area is, seriously. xD 176 cm is, like, the start of the "pretty tall" category here.

Anyway, uhm. With the shoes, I meant to look at the measurements in centimetres. You could measure your latest pair of shoes bought in the EU format, and compare the two measurements to see more or less what size the shoe you see online is equivalent to. That, or some other shoes you know are pretty equivalent to the "size 40" or "size 41" that you know.

yeah I guess that could work out.

i'm not sure where your from,it said frence/canada on your profil,
but my countrys are jugded to be with the tallest people in the world, so I guess it could explain alittle.

I dont know the avenge size for cananda but frence should be 1.74 for men as I read.

French Canada, as in the area of Canada where people speak French. :p

And, uhm, I'm not really referring to the country. If I just go a few hours' drive south, people start to get super tall. It's just my area of less than 300 000 people. I swear, girls as tall as me or taller are less than a quarter of them, and a good half of guys are about my size, just a bit taller or shorter.

Maybe it's the lack of genetic diversity. In the beginning, this area was colonised by few people who made children like crazy, after all. :p
